Chapter 82

“The Emperor’s carriage is also there; it is likely Dong Zhuo is forcing the Emperor to flee Luoyang.”

Everyone was shocked and put down their wine cups,

“That old thief Dong Zhuo has actually fled!”

At the same time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief; Dong Zhuo still had over two hundred thousand troops; if a full-scale war broke out, there would surely be heavy casualties!

Ding Yuan Shao slammed the table in anger,

“Thief Dong is shameful, actually fleeing west!”

Cao Cao stood up excitedly,

“Everyone, Dong Zhuo must be fleeing to Chang’an; if our army pursues him with all our strength now, we will surely defeat Thief Dong and welcome back the Emperor!”

Unfortunately, almost no lords responded to him!

Ding Yuan Shu curled his lips,

“Mengde, why are you so excited? This might be Dong Zhuo’s trick; he might be waiting to ambush us when we pursue.”

Cao Cao couldn’t be bothered to deal with this trash Ding Yuan Shu and cupped his hands,

“Alliance Leader, if we don’t pursue Dong Zhuo now, when will we?”

Ding Yuan Shao didn’t want to pursue either; Dong Zhuo had fled west, so the alliance had been successfully completed,

and he was in a hurry to go back to plot for Jizhou and develop his own power.

These lords had all realized the benefits of being the boss themselves,

and now asking them to go to court every day and flatter others was truly difficult!

Ding Yuan Shao waved his hand,

“Mengde, don’t be in a hurry; it won’t be too late to wait for the scouts to investigate again. Gonglu is right; if this is Dong Zhuo’s trick, our army will be in danger if we pursue rashly!”

Cao Cao?!

He said loudly,

“Before Hulao Pass, Liu Bei defeated Lu Bu, and the Xiliang army has lost its spirit; Dong Zhuo fleeing west to Chang’an is a helpless move. If you gentlemen fight this battle, the world can be settled!”

Ding Yuan Shao remained silent and did not respond.

A few lords said in low voices,

“We must not act rashly.”

“Mengde is too excited!”

Cao Cao was enraged,

“Hmph, these fools are not worth conspiring with!”

After saying this, he strode out of the tent and led his troops to pursue Dong Zhuo toward Luoyang.

Liu Bei was still sparring with Zhang Fei in his camp,

“Clang! Clang! Clang!”

Liu Bei used the Overlord Spear Technique, the spear tip smashing against Zhang Fei’s serpent spear, making him retreat step by step!

Zhang Fei was drenched in sweat and shouted loudly,

“Big Brother, your strength is even greater than that fellow Lu Bu’s, and this spear technique is also excellent!”

“Whoosh!”

Liu Bei held the spear in his hand and laughed heartily,

“Refreshing!”

Zhao Yun rode over,

“My Lord, scouts report that flames are soaring to the sky in Luoyang; Dong Zhuo has burned Luoyang City.”

“Cao Cao’s camp is already empty; he has gone to Luoyang to pursue Dong Zhuo!”

Liu Bei?

“This Boss Cao is too impatient; he went to pursue Dong Zhuo without even saying a word.”

Liu Bei looked around,

“You all hurry down and prepare; in two hours, our army will also set out to pursue Dong Zhuo!”

“Understood!”

Zhao Yun and the others felt that their master was indeed different from those lords who only knew how to drink; he cared about the Han Empire!

Jia Kui cupped his hands,

“My Lord, should we inform Ding Yuan Shao?”

Liu Bei thought for a moment,

“That’s fine. Zhang Yide, take some men to Ding Yuan Shu’s camp and get a month’s worth of rations for our army.”

“If Ding Yuan Shu refuses to give them, you know what to do!”

Zhang Fei grinned,

“Big Brother, I understand! I understand very well!”

Guan Yu asked,

“Big Brother, is the alliance about to break up?”

Liu Bei nodded,

“Just about. Dong Zhuo has fled west to Chang’an; among this group of lords, only Cao Cao has led troops to pursue, and the others have different intentions; the team is hard to lead!”

Liu Bei looked around,

“The people of Luoyang are being driven by the Xiliang army; it is freezing cold, and I fear many will die if they are forced to migrate. We should try our best to help the people take refuge in Hedong.”

(agfh) Zhao Yun, Zhang Zhang Liao, Jia Kui, and others cupped their hands one after another,

“My Lord is righteous!”

A few hours later,

Ding Yuan Shu rushed into the Alliance camp with a pair of panda eyes, feeling extremely aggrieved,

“Rebellion, this Liu Bei is rebelling!”

Several drunken lords were a bit strange,

“Gonglu, what happened to you?”

Ding Yuan Shu said loudly,

“Liu Bei’s third brother Zhang Fei rushed into the supply camp, snatched a batch of rations, and when I refused, he gave me two punches!”

Ding Yuan Shao??

“Liu Bei sent someone to say just now that he was also going to pursue Dong Zhuo, but I didn’t agree, and he led his troops away himself and snatched the rations?!”

“This is truly lawless!”

Ding Yuan Shao felt that people’s hearts were scattered and the team was hard to lead!

Especially Cao Cao and Liu Bei, who had set a very bad example!

Ding Yuan Shu looked around and didn’t see Liu Bei, so his courage grew,

“This mat-weaver and sandal-seller is just a robber! He doesn’t listen to orders at all!”

Ding Yuan Shao was afraid that more lords would go to pursue, and if they really welcomed the Emperor back, what would happen?

“Gentlemen, let’s stay put for now and discuss it after the scouts find out the truth!”

Ding Yuan Shu spat,

“With Cao Cao and Liu Bei’s troops, they aren’t even enough to fill the gaps in Dong Zhuo’s teeth!”

The other lords also wanted to preserve their strength; Dong Zhuo’s two hundred thousand Xiliang soldiers were fierce, so there was no need to go looking for trouble!

“Drink.”

“Come, come, let’s keep drinking!”

The livestream chat had many more comments,

“Ding Yuan Shao and Ding Yuan Shu are truly disgusting; they claimed to be avenging their uncle, but now? They’re lying flat!”

“With these two nephews, I fear their uncle wishes he could take them down with him!”

“These lords haven’t wanted to be loyal to the Han Empire for a long time.”

“Indeed, rather than fighting to the death, it’s better to go back and grab territory!”

“Cao Cao and Liu Bei have unique vision; they are the ones who will accomplish great things!”
